XM 2.1TD Manual on car and classic

Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

Hi Campbell,

Its not mine, but it is one that I had. This is the car you were originally looking to buy if you could find a buyer for your TCT if you remember. XMX has kindly linked the ad in with the original posting if you have a bit of a trawl through the for sale section.

He has had the back end re-piped recently hence the price hike.

Mine needs to go first. The dispatch combi is providing economical transport and the Xm tct uses 2 gallons per day on the commute to work. I like the look of the diesel one.

The diesel car is a nice one Campbell.

It hasn't done much driving since most of the major work was done to the car. I think he has had it little over a year now.

Having spent £250,000 this month I need the blue petrol one to go first. Lol

Swmbo'd knows I want another Xm estate but a diesel one.

Nice colour blue, seems like a good plan.

Campbell,
If you'd typed 'N477 YBL' into the search facility, you would have found it INSTANTLY ;)

Well done, that's a nice sorted 2.1TD Manual Estate for £900 ono, and with it being from the 'YBL' reg. range I'm sure Peter maybe a bit envious :lol:

I see that the Diesel Estate is not fitted with a tow-bar, so if your transferring the one off your petrol estate you need to amend your FOR-SALE thread details and give the thread a 'nudge with an updated' post !

Good luck with both the pick up of the diesel one and hopefully a quick sale on the petrol one !

An XM if for life, (Not just for Christmas) !

The petrol Xm will most likely disappear off the market for a few weeks until the leather interior, towbar, sun visor, etc. come off.
There will be a commensurate drop in price. I wasn't in a rush to sell before and have a couple of sniffs of interest on another forum for it with cloth interior and no towbar at a much more reasonable price.

I'm going to enjoy the trip to Ireland and a cheque for £1150 I was expecting arrived a little early today. It cost a smidgen under £900 for the new car. Deposit is paid and I have to choose how to get to Newry.
